I NEVER get to see the baby departures around here. And I TRY!! They slip away in the night. Maybe mama bird ate the egg? I love the robin pictures! You ARE so lucky! This morning a cardinal family was out with one new baby hopping around. DH had just raised the garage door when he saw them...so he didn't go out. Sure enough...baby bird hopped into the garage... mama was not happy. I watched and when baby hopped out....many minutes later... I let the garage down.

Well, you never know do you! :) I found a nest once that was aboaut 2 feet off the ground in a wild schrub along a fenceline, while geo cacheing. It had some cowbird eggs in it. I wonder if they ever hatched or something got them. I have been seeing teeny tiny hummingbirds at my feeders the past few days. I don't know how old they are but they are only about 2 inches in length, if that. Cute little hummers!

We had a crazy Robin banging its head against the glass door on our back porch ... relentlesslyshe had a poop-a-rama on the porch too...had to cover things in black plastic (what a mess...ugh!)...either she didn't like that or just finally gave up with a sore head/beak
